Hubbards is a small town right on a harbour about 40 minutes outside of downtown Halifax. It's the type of small town where the people who are there have been there for 70 years, and their accents are a muddle of Scottish, Irish, and good 'ole thick Nova Scotia Canadian. It's the type where they speak to you and by the end of a 90 second rant you have your head tilted like a puppy dog, and the only thing you can manage to say is "...WHAT?!" Hubbards is a town I'm pretty sure my parents are going to retire in. The Shore Club is an amazing restaurant that I go to every single Saturday, where the waitresses know me by name. Best lobster on the island. So fresh, in fact, that they keep their traps in the ocean while they wait for your order. Every few minutes you can see one of the chefs go running out the back of the restaurant, lift a trap from the water, grab a lobster and go running back in. It don't get fresher than that. For $25, you can have yourself a glass of wine, all you can eat salad bar, all you can eat mussels, and a 2.5lbs "nipper" (that's what they call lobsters). Enough to have you rolling out and down the steps after.
